I'm sure theskid plate can be media blasted. It's not as hard on the metal as sandblasting, but just as effective. Then you can either paint it or have it powdercoated. [sm=icon_cheers.gif]
All this media blasting and sand blasting is completely over my head.

I think we will just take it somewhere that does powder coating and let them prep it and do it. That way if it is screwed up, I can blame them.

Not to worry. You can still drive it.

Just don't go anywhere that you'll need a skid plate

Here are pics of our newly powder coated skid plate:







It would have normally cost about $85 to get it done. Fortunately for us, I found out that I had an old friend (haven't seen this guy in 20 years) that owns a company that does it and he hooked us up. His company is Powder Coating Inc (PCI) in Oxford, GA. I love it!

Looks good. Goes well with the theme of the truck.
